Heritage, expertise and quality come together in BENELUXE Vodka, a premium Dutch vodka from Rotterdam, a city with a long-standing tradition of spirit production. With a steadfast commitment to quality and close attention to detail, BENELUXE is an appealing choice for those looking for a spirit with a clean character and a distinctive identity.
It is produced in the Netherlands at a distillery whose history dates back to 1658. Centuries of tradition are combined with modern production standards and carefully selected ingredients to shape the final result. The expertise accumulated over generations is an integral part of the BENELUXE philosophy, with the aim of creating a spirit distinguished by its balance and quality.
Carefully selected ingredients and a clean taste
BENELUXE Vodka is made from high-quality wheat and water purified through reverse osmosis. The careful selection of ingredients and meticulous production process contribute to a vodka with a crystal-clear appearance, a clean taste and a smooth character.
At 40% ABV, it has a well-balanced flavour profile, making it equally suitable for those who prefer to enjoy vodka neat and those who like to use it in cocktails. Its clarity and smoothness are among its defining characteristics, offering an enjoyable drinking experience without unnecessary intensity.
BENELUXE Ice and Black Gold: Two expressions, a distinctive process
The BENELUXE range comprises two expressions, BENELUXE Ice and BENELUXE Black Gold, both available in 700 ml bottles. BENELUXE Ice is also available in an impressive 1.75-litre Magnum bottle, making it an ideal choice for larger gatherings and occasions shared with friends.
One distinctive element of the production process for both expressions is the resting period before bottling. BENELUXE Ice rests for 25 days, while BENELUXE Black Gold rests for 40 days. This is a specific stage of the production process that takes place before bottling and should not be confused with barrel ageing.
This difference forms part of the individual identity of each expression, while both remain true to the shared philosophy of the range: a commitment to quality, purity and a balanced drinking experience.
International recognition with a two-star Superior Taste Award
The quality of BENELUXE Vodka has also received international recognition, having been awarded a two-star Superior Taste Award by the International Taste Institute, based in Brussels. The award follows an independent blind tasting carried out by professional tasters. During the evaluation, different aspects of the product are assessed, including first impression, appearance, aroma, taste and the finish left on the palate. This accolade provides an important endorsement of BENELUXE’s flavour profile and the care that goes into every bottle.
Enjoyed neat or as the base for cocktails
BENELUXE Vodka offers versatility in the way it can be enjoyed. It can be served neat and well chilled, allowing its clarity and smooth character to come to the fore. At the same time, it provides an interesting base for classic cocktails as well as more creative combinations.
Whether served simply over ice or used in a cocktail with a more complex combination of ingredients and flavours, BENELUXE can adapt to different occasions and preferences. Its clean, neutral flavour profile allows the other ingredients to shine while maintaining a subtle presence of its own.
With a story rooted in the Dutch tradition of distilling and a consistent commitment to quality, BENELUXE Vodka brings its own distinctive touch to moments of enjoyment. With two different expressions, meticulous production and international recognition for its taste, it is a premium choice that combines the simplicity of a clean flavour profile with the versatility to inspire creative serves, adding a distinctive character to every occasion.
